Smile Hi

I'm Les, I've got a 1999 S Type 3L.
It's had most of the usual problems sorted since I got it.....
Gearbox.......replaced
Coolant tank......replaced
Radiator hoses.......replaced

Got the lurch at times but doing good!!!

My drivers seat seems to be playing up now......moves on door side but not on gearshift side so since the wife moved the seat back for her long legs I'm considering some platform shoes!!! Unless anyone can advise on a cure??

Welcome to the forum Les,

Shoot over and ask about the seat in the S section.

Welcome to the forum.

I used to have exactly the opposite problem. Cured, but I've still got the Jag.

More chance of finding a pair of platform shoes than the wife stopping driving it I'm afraid!

How did you fix yours then Richard? It's happened a couple of times before but always corrected itself on it's own, this time it's looking like more of a permanent problem!
